KASHMIR: BEAUTIFUL AND UNFORGETTABLE

                                      

KASHMIR: BEAUTIFUL  AND UNFORGETTABLE ...

I add some lines from a Gazal of Raghupati Sahay  Firaq Gorakhpuri ( included in his poetic collection Gul e Nagma ) to this photo..

"Jee mein aata hai tujh Ko pukaara karein.. 

Rehguzar rehguzar aastaan aastaan..

Mere daar ul amaan aay hareem e nigaar 

Ham phirein kyaa Yun hi be-amaan be- amaan"

( Firaq Gorakhpuri.......From Gul e Nagma )

My  English, translation  is  like this :- 

("This heart feels like crying 

loud your name ,

 Crying it on every  pathway ,

Crying it at every shrine's entrance .

O refuge giver! 

O sanctuary of beauty !

Should we wander aimlessly ,

Without a refuge 

Without a shelter ?")
